Kimpton Hotel Monaco Salt Lake City

Kimpton Hotel Monaco Salt Lake City Review | Hotels Above Par

"Sitting in a historic neoclassical/Gothic Revival building whose walls still show carved stone faces, arched windows, polished marble floors and even a vaulted safe door, I found the Kimpton Hotel Monaco Salt Lake City effortlessly balances old-world charm with modern luxury: bold, bright Kimpton decor, complimentary daily happy hours, diverse wellness offerings, and thoughtful touches like the Kimpton Plant Pals Program and reserveable PUBLIC bikes. The rooms and suites feel spacious and contemporary with striped carpeted floors, heavy gray curtains, pops of cerulean and burnt orange, artwork nodding to the Wasatch, and large bathrooms stocked with Atelier Bloem products—many upper-floor suites include soaking tubs and walk-in showers. Former tenants ranged from the city’s first non–B&B hotel and restaurant to a barbershop, pharmacy, and Utah’s largest national bank (which inspired the on-site bar), and the property famously served as accommodations for President Joe Biden in 2023. With 225 guest rooms and suites, a four-star rating, and prices starting around $127/night depending on season, the hotel’s mix of preserved architectural details and modern amenities makes the front desk and adjacent living room a comfortable haven for guests to relax, play board games, and socialize." - Joey Skladany
